• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Hi Steve, Torque specs are for DRY bolts. 15 Ft lbs; having said this I have heard of others stripping when torqueing oil pan drain bolts. Use a 3/8's drive socket, place the head of the ratchet in the palm of your hand, using two fingers on the shaft of the wrench to tighten. Do NOT apply...

    Is this Torque for rear brake caliper bolts too high?

    When at just snug, place the palm of your dominate hand over the head of the ratchet and tighten using just that hand in that position. Never had a caliper loosen nor have I ever stripped a bolt tightening it this way. FWIW your results may vary. Al in Kazoo
